 Yes, we enjoyed another fabulous, fabulous event in New York City, on Thursday, 
 June 20^th.   We welcomed the much-anticipated warmer and longer days of Summer in grand style with a wonderful celebration in the Big Apple.

Even though we had several stormy nights leading up to our event, we had a clear, perfect night.  And it seemed everyone was ready to enjoy a special night out – our regular guests brought many of their friends, and we had many faces we had not seen for a while come to this event!

Our celebration was hosted by Elite Professional Networking Group, Black Tie International Magazine, Power Team International, Giorgio G Cognac (by fashion designer Giorgio Gucci), Emperors Brand and AR-1 Supercar. We gathered at the always popular, always friendly Trump Tower International World Bar.

And once again Rita Cosby, the host and special correspondent for CBS was in attendance.  So was Latin celebrity, coach and speaker Karen Hoyos.  Also attending was the managing director for Larry Silverstein of the World Trade Center and Silver Towers, Kenneth Flornes.  And Ken brought several of his friends: plus Victor Samuelsen, managing partner of Manhattan Helicopters, Arthur T. Gurwitz , Chief Operating Officer of Proskauer Rose LLP, and Marea Nathanson,  vice president of Business Development for Churchill Corporate Services.

Other guests included: Katerin Rodriguez of UNIVISION and Managing Partner and On-Air Talent for VIVIKaterin, LLC,  Michael Giakummelos of MGTVUSA and DJshorte of H4ETV , and Juliann Guirlo and Thomas Markowski of Nerium International. Juliann and Thomas brought samples of their anti-aging products that guests enjoyed learning about throughout the evening.
